[Bacula-users] Question on restoring files using bscan with 2 storage servers

2013-11-26 Thread Jerry Lowry
hello list,
I am hoping you can help me solve this.

I have one director and to storage servers.  Both storage servers have
disks attached but only one sd has a tape drive.  The tape drive is not on
the director.  I need to load some old tapes into the database but when I
run bscan from the sd where the tape is, it does not see the database.  If
I run bscan from the director where there isn't a tape drive it does not
see the tape drive on the other sd.

How can I resolve this?

thanks

I know this can be made to work since my director, database and tape
storage are on 3 different servers and have been for 8+ years.

Wait a minute bscan has a parameter for database host, port, username
and password. Are you supplying the database info?

Usage: bscan [ options ] bacula-archive
   -b bootstrap  specify a bootstrap file
   -c file specify configuration file
   -d nn   set debug level to nn
   -dt   print timestamp in debug output
   -mupdate media info in database
   -D driver name  specify the driver database name (default NULL)
   -n name specify the database name (default bacula)
   -u user specify database user name (default bacula)
   -P password specify database password (default none)
   -h host specify database host (default NULL)
   -t port specify database port (default 0)
   -pproceed inspite of I/O errors
   -rlist records
   -ssynchronize or store in database
   -Sshow scan progress periodically
   -vverbose
   -V Volumes  specify Volume names (separated by |)
   -w dir  specify working directory (default from conf file)
